Renewals! CBS Gives Supergirl A Full Season Order Of 20 Episodes!

It looks like Supergirl will be flying high for at least a few more episodes!

The CBS series just got an order for an additional seven episodes according to Deadline.

The female superhero series started out with huge numbers that are eventually coming down to earth, but it’s still doing well. CBS is calling the 20 episode first series a full season renewal even though the traditional full season is 22 episodes.

As Deadline reports the 2-episode shy of a full season order could be that the ratings haven’t been flying as high as they once were for the freshman series or that the show premiered so late in the season.

The series has improved it’s ratings by 46% in viewers and 40% in the advertiser coveted 18-49 demo compared to it’s comedy block from last year.
